# Change Voyage Status
From the voyage drawer it is possible to change the status of the voyage by using the status chip next to the reference no at the top of the drawer.
### **From Estimate to Allocate:**
When changing status from estimate to Allocate, the following modal will show, where you have to select the vessel, and if you want, you can manually change the position. It will by default be put last.
### **From Estimate to Nominated:**
When changing status from Estimate to Nominated, the following modal will show. If it is a TC voyage with missing laycan on the TC, you will have to fill in the layCan as well.
The nominating process will also change the *booking status* of all of the cargoes on the voyage to 'Clean Fix'.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.dataloy.com/release-7.3/voyage-management-system/step-by-step-guides/voyages/maintain-voyages/voyage-functionalities/change-voyage-status.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
